I just bought an 180 gallon reef ready tank and wanted to know if you are to glue the bulkheads inside the overflow box????
 
You don't want to use any type of glue for any plumbing. The bulkheads should be threaded, so you will want to wrap them with plumber's tape and hand tighten them. If they leak, you will gently continue to tighten. Over tightening can cause leaking and crack the glass.
